It’ll be interesting to see if Girardi mixes regulars with bench/call-ups in each game or has the starters go in the first game and goes with the bench/call-ups in the 2nd game (to allow the starters essentially extra rest by not having to play into the night). If he chooses the latter with Nova on the mound in Game 2 vs Lacking, then that at least gives the Sox a fighting chance to get two Wins on Sunday.

Get ready fans of offense . . . Wakefield vs Burnett on Sunday afternoon has the potential to turn into a laser and bomb spectacle!

Sat, 24 Sep 2011 04:26:44 +0000http://hardballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=87668#comment-197953Actually, I think this might be a break for the Sox…they had a day off and now an extra one from the weather man. This may serve as a bandage to slow if not stop the bleeding altogether. While the Sox got some more rest for their mentally and physically challenged squad the Rays have already lost again, and the Angels were being one hit last I looked. Toronto is not letting anyone forget their presence in the scheme of deciding the AL playoff picture just as Baltimore had there say earlier in the week. Only time will tell, but fans of “the Nation” may find themselves blessing the rains of September when October rolls around,

2.) DJ, don’t let Craig see you use “kick off” on HBT again—unless, of course, you are making some reference to Ohio State.

In the past, he has pitched extremely well against the Jays. Morrow will have to pitch very well in order for the Jays to beat Tampa Bay.
